Now they need to repair it in order to put it on the market. Forced to work together, Ben and Jessa encounter one problem after another with farm animals, the water pipes, electrical issues and a hired handyman who seems to like Jessa. Can they mend the house and make amends with each other? Home improvements were never this funny in this fixer-upper comedy where love is the ultimate remedy!
